College Scorecard reports school-wide earnings and price, not per-major outcomes for individual colleges. Program share is a concentration signal, not a promise of department quality. Use it as a proxy, then verify department-level outcomes with the school.

This page stays available for users because the program appears in federal data, but it is not promoted for search indexing while the reported share is below 1%.

The reported share is below the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is lower than the peer average ($4,211 below), and ten-year median earnings are lower than the peer average ($8,468 below).

Questions about this program

How big is the program signal?

Human Services, General accounts for 0.7% of reported programs at Columbia College, which is bigger than 26% of schools in this field set and below the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 14 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.

How should I read the cost number?

Are the earnings major-specific?

No. The $39,035 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $8,468 below the $47,503 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.

What should I compare next?

Start with program share, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify ranks Columbia College #169 of 344 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
